Senatorial voting-records on pork

Over at Porkbusters there is a scoring card on Senators' votes on three separate "porky" bills. Kay Bailey Hutchison voted to limit pork only once out of three times, and John Cornyn voted two out of three times to limit pork.

Tale of the tape? I think Kay Bailey is more interested in greasing political wheels in DC than she is in limiting government spending and looking out for the taxpayer. Unless she does something incredible from now until November I will be voting for anyone else that I believe might be able to save taxpayers.

Overall I think we need to clean house, so to speak. Republicans need to realize taxpayers are getting fed up with pork. When a republican congressman from Alaska wants to build a bridge to nowhere for a couple hundred million dollars, on land that belongs to either croonies or his own family, that disgusts me. Makes me embarrased to vote for a political party that has sold themselves as fiscal conservatives.
